New episode of @swindled.bsky.social dropped. Valued Listeners make some noiseeeeeeee

Made this for @swindled.bsky.social

Having taken a duck boat tour during a middle school field trip to Boston back in the early 00’s, this episode was downright spooky, as well as incredibly sad, to listen to. 😰

Another incredibly upsetting episode (complimentary)

Another great episode. I always saw these boats but never used them. What a heartbreaking and unnecessary tragedy.

My absolute favorite podcast for years atp.
